Hi,
Welcome to health care magic,

Vomiting and diarrhea could be due to acute gastroenteritis or viral gastroenteritis or irritable bowel syndrome etc.

It could also be possible that her gall bladder has been removed before 6 months then there is some issue with digestion which may also lead to diarrhea.

She must undergo routine blood count,electrolytes with clinical examination of abdomen or ultrasound of abdomen.

She will require antibiotics (quinolones or cephalosporins or antiprotozoals etc.) with antiemetic, antispasmodics with prebiotics and probiotics.

There might be need of fluid and electrolyte balance in body.

You must take her to physician for immediate treatment.

Regards,
